Worldwide, transportation authorities are keen to implement sustainable development measures and to move toward a more sustainable mobility for people and goods. However, this implementation entails a rise in the need for a sustainable development assessment framework for mobility, in order to compare different projects or to monitor a given area. This paper addresses the issue of conceptualization and standardization of the evaluation of sustainable development in transportation, by proposing a framework, which seeks to meet the various needs of transportation planners. This framework aims to provide an exhaustive view of the sustainability features (through its three main dimensions), as well as to clarify the concept of sustainability in transportation by embedding links between actions and impacts. This paper presents the basis of the framework developed as an interactive tool: (1) a representation named ‘Octopus’ categorizing the impact of mobility on the three dimensions of sustainable development and (2) a circular representation, named ‘Causal circle’, which integrates causal links between actions and impacts on these same dimensions.

The interests focus on the tools, used in the case of evaluating the sustainability in the mobility structures. In the present is sustainable development regular part of planning in every scale. According to growing development and innovations, it was necessary to ensure a sustainable framework of progress or traffic performance. Sustainable development goals were founded as a reaction to limited natural sources and also as a response to the human impact on nature. Evolution of those goals started with the environmental base and then had also been added social and economic aspects. A study wants to find sophisticated tools for the evaluation of sustainable development in urban structures. As was located, in Europe exist methods for assessment of sustainability (EIA, SEA, LCA, EF, ER, GP, CBA, CEA, MCDA, EA, SIA, SEIA, etc.). Although even their large amount, they are mostly based on just one section of SD. Other tools which are used, are methods for evaluation sustainability (BREEAM, CASBEE-UD, GBI, LEED, IGBC, SB tool, DGNB, etc.), where are also included other sections (environmental, economic, social). Assessment tools were described and preliminary compared in the context of the factors’ coverage.

The paper aims to study sustainable regional development by assessing the realisation of the values and interests of key stakeholders. The methodological framework includes the concept of sustainable development and a value-driven approach to management. The authors employ the method of theoretical analysis to validate the possibility of applying the value-driven approach to assess the sustainable regional development and building a conceptual model reflecting the composition of the key regional stakeholders and the content of their values and interests in the context of the concept of sustainable development. To provide both the overall and individual (in terms of social, environmental and economic components) assessments of the level of realisation of these values, the researchers adopt the method of integral assessments and develop a system of indicators and a step-by-step method for calculating the integral index. The authors test the proposed methodological tools using the case of the regions of the Volga and Ural Federal Districts. The findings demonstrate that the most acute problems for all stakeholders are the problems of ensuring environmentally friendly living conditions for the population, reducing the environmental pressure and environmental intensity of economic activity. In the social sphere, the most relevant issues remain improving the standard of living, and raising the volume and quality of social services provided to the population. The authors arrive at the conclusion that insufficient level of realisation of the regional authorities’ values limits their ability to influence the processes of sustainable regional development by improving the level of other stakeholders’ interests’ realisation.
